High up in the mountains where we lived we had a bomb shelter where that spent years’ worth of savings to construct.Ĭamouflaged into the landscape you would hardly notice there was anything other than the mound that was coming out of the ground. Our house, however, as prepped as it was, was no place to stay in case of nuclear war.Īnd finally, the apocalypse was here. If you are looking for a more in-depth guide in to nuclear survival, see some of the links in the article for more info. We had a massive container buried underground packed with everything we would need in the coming months of horror.īefore we get into the meat of the article I thought it would be good to say that this is not a comprehensive article about Nuclear Survival, rather it is an overview on nuclear and bomb shelters based on my experience, where you can start to look for a shelter where you live and why it’s important to plan ahead so that you are ready when the time comes. Not only was our house mostly off-grid, with a steady supply of wind and solar energy, but we also had a garden, greenhouse, chickens, and a cache of guns and ammo to ward off anyone wanting to steal our rations. Which means prepping years’ worth of dehydrated goods, canned beans, flour rice, and generators. We had been preparing for the coming apocalypse for years. Instead, we had to hunker down in one of the dozen community fallout shelters that lay hidden in some miles from our already middle-of-nowhere trailer deep in the mountains of the Rockies.ĭozens of other families came together to purchase, build and fill a complex web of shelters enough for several families each to last 3-5 years, or until the nuclear fallout cleared and it was safe enough to go out.
The rural remote mountains apparently were not enough to protect us from Armageddon.
Luckily we had been preparing for this moment for years. We only had minutes before we were to leave with whatever we could carry. I was a young 6-year-old kid who was told to grab his teddy bear and get ready to move.
